The Lib Dem team are consulting on putting up long-stay parking charges in Cheadle village as one way of increasing the number of short-stay places and boosting trade for local shops. As you know, parking in Cheadle village is not easy. Many local traders firmly believe that the problem is too many people parking all […]

The Lib Dem team have been working for some time on improving car parking in Cheadle. We know there are no easy fixes – most of the answers that helps one group causes more hassle for someone else. For example, if we push long-stay cars out of the car parks, they’ll probably park up on […]

Stockport’s Peel Centre is a popular shopping centre, and rightly so with stores from New Look to Hobbycraft, Toys R Us to Currys.

In recent months the Lib Dem team has been working to see how we can free up spaces for shoppers in Cheadle’s car parks. Cheadle has more car parking than any other district centre in Stockport – over 400 spaces in the car parks plus a range of short-stay near the village centre (e.g. Ashfield […]

Cheadle village has a lot of car parking spaces compared to most other similar centres, but it’s also successful as a shopping and employment centre. That leaves us with the problem that the parking sometimes runs out and people can struggle to find spaces in the main car parks. Traders and shoppers both complain that […]

Exciting events, festive markets, free parking and late night shopping are just some of the great things on offer in Stockport this Christmas. Celebrations kick off with Merseyway Shopping Centre’s Christmas light switch-on event on Wednesday 12th November. The Council will be providing FREE parking from 2.00pm in its pay and display car parks and […]

Stockport Council has been offering free parking in its car parks and on-street parking since the Lib Dems introduced it in 2007 for anyone driving a Band A car, which have been identified by the tax disc until now (these include electric vehicles, most hybrids and very low emission cars). Following the Government decision to […]
